hi everybodye sorry for the question but im new on this, well i have a htc hd2 from tmobile, i install android nand, following directions of a forum from here, everything is working good, i install setcpu from market and it do not let me configure it,so i install root check and it said is NOT rooted, my question is how can i root my phone,, please help.. thanx a lot and sorry if my question is stupid for some of you guys
[HD2 General] SpiderVenom:
As long as you have hspl you should be rooted. I would check to make sure you have setcpu superuser permission
[HD2 General] pandemoniumsax:
thanx so much for you answer and not make fun of me, well yes i installed hspl3, and when it done it said we hack it:), but root checker still say, sorry you dont have root access :( can you please tell me how to check superuser permission, thanx so much,,
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
Look in your app tray and see if you have a Superuser icon. If you do then ckick in it and then find where it says allow superuser access. Most Andriod ROMs for tbe HD2 are already rooted when you install them. If you do not have a Superuser icon then Google "z4root" it is a one click root app that works. You will have to dowmload it unzip/extract the apk and copy it to your SD card and then use a file manager to navigate to the apk file and open it this will install the app to your phone. This is also what is known as "sideloading" in Andriod. Open the app and click on Root now button and it will root your phone.
[HD2 General] johnerz:
Using a cpu overclock app has a downside as well as the upside of a faster response when in use.

The downside is that when downclocked and idle, the phone can take a couple of seconds to clock up to the operating speeds required - on some roms its more noticable than others. but a good solid ROM does not need this boost and there a few on here :)
[HD2 General] ross07:
please help

im having exactly the same problem doing my head in ,i installed a nand gingerbread rom that is faultless it cracked it and gave me a super user icon however the superuser never opens and when i install certain programmes they need root access and its saying my phone is not rooted ive checked with a rooting app and it says no root ive tried several methods that has not worked ie superoneclick gingerbreak nothing seems to work

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kal*El:
OK Glad I found this thread.. I too want the dancing droid and cant not get it to work.. I am using sense ROM and I have tried the moving it to the sytem/media.. doesnt work.. I have tried pushing it via "pushboot" still doesnt work.. I get a black screen..

So when you say flash it via recovery.. Just a manual flash..

1)boot into recovery

2)flash system via zip

3) choose bootanimation

4) reboot

Is that all??

I also created sound for this as well. the sound works great on other animations but nothing shows up.. Is there anything in the file I need to change.. There is also a "DS STORE" file which i havent seen in other animations..

What is that file for?

Can someone post a screenshot of this flash working???

Im not sure what else to try.. been working on this for hours.. still nothing:confused:

OK just tried to flah in recovery and message received was "Cant find update script" so this could be why its not working... What script is needed?? Is it the notepad of code that goes into each zip bootanimation? that is not in the zip btw when downloaded from the thread that has this download... so if its working on other Evos how did you do it.. and what script is present??

Private POIs & Routs from Google (.kml files)

Hello guys, I'm new & unexperienced in GPS stuff, and need your help !

I’m trying to upload some private POIs, which I’ve created with Google Earth (.kml files), to my GPS device (Chinese no-name brand), operating with IGO8.3.2.8 application.

According to instructions I’ve studied from some forums and from NAVNGO’s paper, I’ve opened a new folder - under "content" folder - named “userdata”, then in this folder, opened a “POI” sub-folder and a “ROUTE” sub- folder.

I copied to the POI folder, the kml poi files, and to the route folder, the routes I’ve prepared and saved as .kml file, in GE.

After turning the GPS device on, when pressing the “manage pois” button, I can see all the (kml) pois I’ve uploaded, but after activating them (one by one), I don’t see them any more. I can see only the regular pois that came with the map. Even when I’m searching over all the regular pois, my private pois doesn’t appear.

As for the routes, I don’t see them even not in “manage” state. They are there, and I see them by double clicking the sub-folder, in my PC, but not on the GPS.

I’m frustrated because I’m trying to solve the problem, for over two month now, and when checking and over checking myself, I don’t find anything I don’t do exactly by the instructions. In the forums I see other people declaring to do exactly the same instructions, and confirm that they succeeded and that it works. So what am I doing wrong ??. PLEASE advise me what shall I do to overcome this problem. Any assistance may help !

Thanks in advance,

Yonchi

This might help answer your question:

http://phandroid.com/2011/03/24/google-withholding-honeycomb-source-from-developers-out-of-concern-for-user-experience/

I would expect to find customer honeycomb roms about in future, but whether they are fit for purpose will be another matter. There is unlikely to be any official release.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fua1:
I could only find the answer for Sense (which is pretty obvious) but I can't find any info on figuring out PRI info on CM7.

I don't want to have to flash back to sense and check from there.

Any suggestions?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
I don't think you can. I'm on salvage mod at the moment, which is also AOSP gingerbread, and the PRI version is nowhere to be found. If you go to menu>settings>about phone, then you'll see all the information there. PRI isn't listed. If you select 'status', you can see some more information, including the PRL, but still no PRI. I could be wrong (but I don't see it anywhere), as I don't usually run AOSP roms too frequently, but lately since they all have 4g now, I've been getting into them a bit more.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fua1:
Yeah, I did all that and didn't see it, so I figured I'd ask.

I was hoping that maybe there is a way through adb, or terminal, or some other thing I'm not familiar with.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
Nope, unfortunately, you have to flash to a sense rom, but after you update your PRL it keeps resetting you back to 1.34, so bets to just flash the one you want afterward.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fua1:
Figures :)

Thanks for the info.

[P3400 ROM Development] psychocyst:
my time with the gene is heading towards its end and i'd like to go out with a bang!!

i created this thread to give something back to this wonderful community for all the help and guidance that has been offered to me so far

i've kept the next post as sort of a checklist for new (and experienced) chefs for the stuff that they should include in their ROMs and also a list of things that our users request (based on popularity)

i'll also try and provide little descriptions wherever possible

so i'd like all those here to write down the features/apps/requests/tweaks whatever it is that you have used in your previous/current ROMS that you've liked

i'll go through the posts and add newer items into the list as time goes on

this will serve as a good place for the senior chefs here to contribute bits of their knowledge and as a quick reference index for new or aspiring chefs for things they should be considering while making their own ROMs
[P3400 ROM Development] psychocyst:
so here's a list of things a cook oughta look up while making a ROM

i've grouped the things up into separate catgories like

1] OEM

this group requires comparatively less editing on the chef's part so i figured it best to get it out of the way first

i - the initflashfiles.dat files can be edited to make changes in the default directory locations, file names and shortcut links

ii - i remember having changed the CameraDriver.dll module while trying to get my camera working, so chefs may want to look around for that one

iii - same goes for the sdbus.dll and sdmemory.dll, some of the older SYS builds need these modules to be patched else the sd card is not detected by the phone

iv - for those adding their own CABs or any other files for customization on first boot should make sure that their Config.txt file is edited as per their needs

kitchen crashes sometimes set the contents of this file to default thereby voiding the changes made by the chef

v - edit the mxipupdate_OEMVERSION_100.provxml to add in custom ROM name and date

2] SYS

i - firstly go through all the packages and remove unnecessary items to save some important space on our little GENES

look here for more info

ii - feel free to customize the graphics files in the dpi and dpi res folders

nothing says custom ROM more than custom graphics

iii - for more advance users, you can edit the graphics within the .DLL files in some of the files in the SYS folder

modules may also be recmodded to flat .DLL files to edit and then reversemodded to modules again

iv - various system files can be recmodded to reduce the number of modules in slot 0

here's the reason why

i'll place a link up when i find it

v - some of the files can be replaced to improve the functionality

3] EXT

here's another place for some really deep customization for the chef

instead of writing down every single software package that is available i'm making a list of the must-have softwares that work well on our devices

i'll be starting off with a list of my preferred apps and i'll be adding more apps as the user suggestions come in

i - a registry editing software like PHMRegistry

ii - PPCPimBackup

iii - S2P 0.83 by far the best FREE music player around

you could alternatively use older version like the 0.58 version which had the cover flow feature and a different method of creating the playlist

iv - XDA_UC, simply because it reduces the workload on the user post flash/hard reset and pitches in great for when the chef wants some post-boot customizations to be carried out

v - pocketnester, NES ROMs may not be everyone's cup of tea but it sure as hell provides some endless time-wasting fun

[P3400 ROM Development] karan999:
Lets work on overclocking our CPU.currently iv been using "omap" to overclock my device to 240Mhz.

Worst part is,just as the device goes to sleep mode,or a manual shut down/restart,the clock speed reduces back to the default 186Mhz.

We either need to edit the Omap executable file or write some code to make it work continuous till the device is active.

If we succeed in this, we'll have ROMs rolled out with default 240Mhz clocking speed as a gift to Gene n the Gene users.

Overclocking is always dangerous. what about the battery life ?? overclocking drains battery faster.

Yes. Overclocking is always dangerous. But if u use it judiciously it works wonders. I have not seen any appreciable drain in battery life. I used to get almost 2 days previously. now also i am getting the same amount. May be a couple of hours less. It increases the ram speed correspondingly.

There's the way to fix this issue?

BTW, the possible solution should be update the files as below:

libsqlite.so

contactsprovidor.apk
